All too often we hear the phrase, “It’s a man’s world” and, quite frankly, I’m getting tired of it. That saying is just an excuse for women not to pour their hearts into a business that they love. Don’t believe me? Well, I have got some examples of smart, successful women that are going to show you that women can be just as successful as men, when it comes to business.
Oprah Winfrey: Love her or hate her, the woman created an empire from nothing. This powerhouse of a woman grew up in poverty and lifted herself to a new level with her show and now her own (literally OWN – Oprah Winfrey Network) cable channel. This woman is proof that you can make it not only as a woman, but as an African American woman, in today’s world.
Hillary Rodham Clinton: She may have started as the First Lady, but this dynamo got to be Secretary of State on her own merits. Once a candidate for president of the US and a Senator, Clinton is now rumored to replace Biden as the Vice Presidential candidate in the 2012 elections because of her poise and success in her current post.
Indra Nooyi: This powerful woman is the Chief Executive at PespiCo and has been integral in giving the soda company a much needed marketing makeover. She poured $20 million into their social media marketing campaigns and helped to start Pepsi Refresh, a campaign that lets users submit grant proposals and then has voters online select the winner. She has made a difference by focusing more on causes and projects in communities and says, “Brands have to speak to millenniums; young people want to make a difference.”
Ellen Degeneres: Another fabulous woman who has found success through television and gracefully overcome adversity and discrimination due to her sexual orientation. Her show has catapulted her into a position as a spokeswoman for many brands including Cover Girl, American Express and Vitamin Water. This lady has found success while never hiding or compromising who she is in the process.
Who does the world really belong to? That’s up to you! If you want it, go out there and get it!
